  1. https://www.jhspedals.com/products/bass-pedals/colourbox/ A really cool little pedal to have. Some good vids on YT showing versatility with keys, vocals, gtr etc too...
  2. Forgot to mention - @police squad - congrats on the endorsement by the way. Make sure you get one of those colour boxes - they are a great channel strip pedal... sound great on bass.
  3. Ha - I had similar! Went into Sam Ash, struck up on a conversation... played some bass that appeared to really float his boat... and low and behold, talk about the gigs I was doing and onto endorsement talk. To be honest though, I didn't really dig the setup as much as the rig I was using so it would have been a complete enwhoresement... which is dead against my ethics. EDIT: Larry was (and I am sure still is) a top bloke to talk to. He seemed generally interested in me, what I was up to and the like... I'm sure I've got the obligatory pic with him somewhere on my computer. (With the Jack Bruce Warwick that had just been played at some Cream reunion or something... funnily, the one he let me play to test out the rigs...)
  4. Ah - supercardioid - quick q for you, do you have to really get your lips up to the mic grill? EDIT: and now I want a stringray.
  5. I get that - regularly record my own performances - was just surprised at the lack of cymbal bleed given the proximity!
  6. Phil - there's this vid here that's doing a similar thing - whilst Dan sorts out his vid!
  7. Nice - some good recordings considering the proximity of you all. I'm surprised that you managed to get such a clean set of vocals without cymbal bleeding into the mics - sounds great for a desk recording.
  8. https://www.musicradar.com/news/namm-2019-mooer-set-to-disrupt-multi-effects-market-with-astonishingly-feature-rich-ge300?fbclid=IwAR1XQ2G79_smhLPKaN75OGM9YHXbnNxC0rPP7EghbVAWw5AzIX7ZY4rOQFc OOOOOooooh.
  9. Sounds like you could do with a fret skim and dress - if the fret edges are sharp, chances are is that the frets have just been put in and thats it. To get the best out of your instrument, they'll need to be skimmed, crowned and dressed.
  10. Oh yes. Jebus, they were giving Fret King a run for their money with those!
  11. I dunno, when amp manufacturers have a go at building basses.... Yeah, those T-Basses stood the stand of time didn't they... Oh, and those Ashdown Lodestone things...
  12. They look like Vic Firth VFSIH1s. If you don't mind the visuals of them, they seem to offer (going from the specs) similar isolation to custom IEMs... but at a lesser price - because they can use bigger, cheaper dynamic drivers to deliver the sound.
  13. Nah, they'll just lack heft.
  14. That assuming the port for the windows version has been done as well as the pi
  15. Indeed. All ugly basses seem to burn the same way when you set them on fire.
  16. Can't vouch for Atom but the MS Surface Pro, 4Gb RAM i5 with the XR18 is a pretty good combo. I'd imagine even the Atom stuff would be fairly capable as you can run up the XR software on a Pi no hassle at all... and is responsive. The app appears to be very lightweight.
  17. Be careful - look at the QSC touchmix facebook groups. The sw isn't as stable as it could be (not that the audio fails - the interface generally locks). I dep with a band that uses a Touchmix 16 - and have to say it's pretty good - although it is running on the original firmware. I can see that if you want a physical interface on the unit, it is appealing.
  18. Not ethernet! USB. The other ballache with the XR - is that there is a maximum distance that USB cables can be without using relatively expensive repeaters (and adds to the chance of failure in the comms)... which means your recording device (eg laptop) has to be in close proximity to the XR.
  19. That's true - that's why you use Dante over ethernet. Anyway, it doesn't help that the comment above alludes to the Behringer doing it's recording over ethernet. It doesn't. The ethernet connection on the XRs are for network connectivity for control... and the other is for Ultranet, which is for their Aviom equivalent for monitoring mixing. The key difference is that the Behringer presents itself as an audio interface (via USB) so a DAW etc is required for recording. Unlike the XRs, The A&H and Mackie mixers (not A&H GLD) will do direct to disk multitrack recording. (They will also present as an audio interface like the Behringer). For the X32 to record multitrack, you need to install XLive card, that will record direct to SD or use it as an audio interface like the XRs. If you want to record over ethernet from the X32, you'll need a Dante card. I've got a couple of DL32R with Dante cards - that enables you to go 64 channels direct to my laptop for recording. Pretty cool stuff.
  20. That’s an owl’s eye
  21. Maybe it was all about getting a "celeb" for the socials...?
  22. @stingrayPete1977 - definitive.
  23. I'm talking about the virtual faders that are in the app.
  24. You can - the only problems comes if you have moved the sliders. It will recall with the saved slider positions.
